青年保護團-計劃要素

在 YCC 中的一天

以下是在州立公園服務的兩週期間生活將如何的日常結構，儘管細節會有所不同。

項目可能包括：

• 小徑維護或建造新路徑。
• 建造野餐墊和帳篷場地，以木材框架和填滿碎石或石灰塵。
• 由公園的遊客中心改造和除草花園和美化。
• Removal of invasive species such as tree of heaven, wavy leaf basket grass, and autumn olive.
• 建造溪流道、水欄等設施，以引導使用者避免踏上可能導致侵蝕的「社交小徑」。
• 在需要翻新的區域鋪設覆蓋物，碎石，石灰或其他材料。
• Collaboration with Master Gardeners, Master Naturalists, Park Volunteers and other groups to accomplish projects including but not limited to those listed.

住宿和膳食：

Crews will live in park housing on state park property, which could include a bunkhouse, a double-wide trailer or a lodge. All housing must have bunks for 10 Crew Members and a separate room with beds for the Crew Leaders. The housing is rustic, and it is not uncommon to have a short walk from the housing to the bathhouse facilities. There are no camping crews at this time.

All meals are provided, and most are cooked collaboratively in the bunkhouse or on the grill.

有趣的活動：

Interpretive, environmental education and recreation activities vary from park to park. Activities that crews have enjoyed in the past include:

• Tubing, kayaking, canoeing, swimming or biking at neighboring state parks.
• 天文計劃或「星派對」。
• 蛇或其他動物識別程序。
• 射箭計劃。
• 釣魚計劃。
• 洞穴或洞穴之旅。
• 參觀附近的城鎮和景點。
• 由弗吉尼亞州大自然學家領導的鳥或植物散步。
